dodge durango [lol]

as i stood at a red light tonight (driving home my lady) there was a pretty new dodge durango standing next to me and as the light turned green he flored it and took of with his gas gurgeling* automobile... i didnt really bother about it cuz..well it was a durango...

at the next light, it was red, i found him standing again and since i was way behind him i was slowly approaching the light and then before i had to stop i was able to catch the light turn green. at this point my girlfriend was yelling at me to 'go go go'... so i florred it and passed the just accelerating Durango but didnt really keep accelerating much once i passed him,
but There i see him (the Durango) catching up to me and so i went back down to second and kicked the almighty **** out of that lil pedal on the right and started to gain on the durango until i was far ahead.

yeah.. that was my lil durango experience... all i can say to that is that he should have bought his lil car with a manual transmision and not a 'laz y boy' automatic...

i know that those things have about 100hp more then what we got...and dont ask me how i managed it but maybe the guy didnt now how to drive his automatic...

it was fun tho.
just wanted to share.

Ahhh.. buddy you raced a lousy V6.

If he had the 5.9L V8 or worse, the new 4.7L V8, you would have gotten owned large and embarassed you in front of your girlfriend. They run 15's no problems!
